Description

HOWDY & WELCOME
TO
COWBOY COINS BY JEFF
SIERRA NEVADA STUDIO, USA
These rare and collectible numismatic coins within this very unique artwork are from my personal collection of many years.They are 100 percent authentic, unaltered and most carefully removed, inspected, reversed and replaced--whatever you wish. Also, they are more than suitable for complete resale. My artwork is meant to enhance, and for you to enjoy, your coins while you own them.
Where and when applicable, many modern coins in my works of art will be accompanied by all their original government packaging (OGP)--all in pristine condition as issued. Folks, this was one of my must-dos when I began creating Cowboy Coins in 2014. I want my friends to be as happy as a puppy with two peters and have options while enjoying any coin and/or artwork of mine.
As a carpenter, artist, and numismatic coin enthusiast, coins are art. They are also history, and--yes, historically--good investments. This Old Boy respects them as such.
I go to great lengths to enjoy and share coins in this venue. They are about as useless as chicken poop on the pump handle to me, sitting in safes or vaults somewhere. Again, I like to enjoy my investments. I hope you do as well.
